Serbia would have to be close to favorites, yeah? Just hopefully we dont get flowered by the multiplier again.
They'll choke like they do in Euros :P. #WentThere

Think they are one of the stronger Euro teams with Lions (that midfield) and Bashers. But the multiplier is heavily favoured against any Euro team ever winning this haha.

How is the multiplier against Euro teams? If anything it benefits Euros because it's the lowest scoring comp :P

It's like the worst scoring system (like sc has a scale of 3300 whereas dt just depends) which is why it was hard for any of the teams to go really deep in the past. I call for compensatory multiplier!

But British and AXVs also just depends haha

I think the thing we need to focus on this time is using only scores from the top 8 teams as opposed to the entire comps, which I don't think we did last year.

Didn't it favour Worlds last year because teams like Dublin and Mexico were so far ahead of New Dehli, Buenos Aires and Cairo? That's why I mentioned it haha

Purple 77

Only like, two uncompetitive teams in Worlds atm, and one of them is largely due to their best players being injured. Wouldn't the multiplier last year have been effected just as much by the uncompetitive teams in the other comps?

How many of those does each comp have btw, just for curiosities sake?

Yeah, the multiplier really flowered over the even competitions.

After the byes, Round 16. That is in the OP :) I need to work out multipliers and make the groups first :P

For the groups, would something like this be fair?

W = Worlds
E = Euros
B = British
A = Asians

Group 1: W1, E4, B5, A8

Group 2: W2, E3, B6, A7

Group 3: W3, E2, B7, A6

Group 4: W4, E1, B8, A5

Group 5: W5, E8, B1, A4

Group 6: W6, E7, B2, A3

Group 7: W7, E6, B3, A2

Group 8: W8, E5, B4, A1

That fits the model I was hoping to have yes (Each group has a 1-2 seed, 3-4 seed etc, and one team from each comp), but the plan is to set up an evening where the groups are drawn out of a virtual hat. Which will hopefully generate a following :)

Tbh as long as I don't get put in a group with Mexico or KL, I'll be relatively happy :P

Reckon the Hurricanes will be the team to beat though
